He's so bad right now that I'd take Geronimo over him. 

At the 2??  No thanks.

I sure hoped that TJD after this many years would have learned that he maybe smaller than those 7 footers but he is almost always faster than them. Get the ball and go up strong, get them in foul trouble!

[RaceToTheTop 30,207]

As bad as X played, we were still +6 with him on the floor.

They can just back off to the rim cause he can’t shoot

That long awaited mid-range game from TJD would be a welcome debut tonight

He was not running the floor at all to start the game.

I’m not convinced that X has actually committed a foul yet. MAYBE one of those was. The charge wasn’t a charge. The one where Kerr tripped over himself wasn’t.

We really just aren't on their level as a team. Especially without JHS. We are an Elite 8 ceiling team. They are a national champion ceiling team.

Arizona -- 16 points on 8 IU turnovers

IU -- 2 points on 5 Arizona turnvoers

Bates has to play we don’t have many choices for a explosive scorer. He Ned’s to go off in second half and score about 15. 

[RoadRage 2,985]

Got to get those loose balls!

NoHomo

TJD is playing different post up defense.Finally.

How many second chances points for them?

[Banksyrules 5,329]

was that an illegal screen?

[Bigred3588 1,535]

Do they miss threes? Sheesh

I love TJD and he has been amazing for IU, but you cannot talk about the goals, embrace the challenge, and then shrink from the moment. He is a big, skilled player and it's time to step up and be that guy.

The giants are continuously beating our guys down the floor.

[Alford Bailey 13,189]

We need JHS to max our potential. First time watching Arizona. Their size and ability to just rise up and shoot from deep is hard to stop.

[LIHoosier 27,665]

OMG we can score fast break points!

[kreigh8 2,111]

Pretty fast break from IU
